Mint Mobile phone deals
Google Pixel 9 Pro XL: was $1,099 now $699, plus a free six-month plan at Mint Mobile
Mint's best phone deal: Mint Mobile's latest Google Pixel 9 Pro XL deal brings the flagship down to a record low price - barely a few weeks after launch, no less. Pick up your Pixel 9 Pro XL alongside one of Mint's excellent cheap prepaid plans and get a massive $400 price cut upfront. In addition, the carrier is also throwing in a free six months of service on the house so you'll get a full year of service for extremely cheap too.
Samsung Galaxy Z Flip6: was $1,199, now $1,099 plus six month plan at Mint Mobile
Another superb phone deal at Mint Mobile, and one that's on a really new model, is this $100 discount on the Galaxy Z Flip 6. This powerful foldable device features a superb clamshell design with a seamless display, powerful chipset, and good cameras. As with most devices at Mint Mobile, this one also comes with six months of service for free when you buy it with a six month plan so you get a decent saving overall here.
Samsung Galaxy A03s: was $160 now $110 with a six-month plan at Mint Mobile
If you're really on a budget - and we mean really on a budget - then the cheapest phone you can get right now at Mint is the Samsung A03s. Naturally, this one has its own deal right now, with a $50 discount if you pick it up with a six month plan. Since you also get six months of free service with this particular promotion, this is as close to getting a free phone at Mint as you can get. Note that we haven't reviewed this model personally here on-site but we'd expect the usual cheap Android phone fare here. Expect a large display and decent battery but middling performance and camera.
Mint Mobile plan deals
Mint Mobile: switch and get a second line for free
Here's a limited time only promotion that's perfect if you're looking to switch over from a pricey big carrier plan to Mint Mobile. This prepaid carrier will currently throw in a second line for free if you port over any two numbers from either AT&T and Verizon. This particular promotion is available with any three month plan - and each line will have to be the same data plan to be eligible.
Mint Mobile: three month unlimited data plan for $15 per month
Looking to try out Mint Mobile? For a limited time only you can get three months of Mint's excellent unlimited data plan for just $15 per month - a massive half-price saving versus the usual cheapest rate. This awesome promotion is perfect if you're just starting out but unfortunately it's eligible for new customers only right now.
Mint Mobile: bundle and save with a 12-month plan
As always, the best way to save cash on a Mint Mobile deal as an existing customer is to commit to a longer plan. By going for a 12-month plan, for example, you're looking at at least a $10-a-month saving on the cheapest 5GB data plan versus the standard three-month period. Those savings get even better across the higher data plans too and all Mint Mobile plans are currently available at a cut-down introductory price for your first three months, just like the unlimited data plan above.
Mint Mobile: family plans starting at $15/mo
Another great way to save with Mint Mobile is by bundling together two or more lines into the new Mint Mobile family plan. Supporting anywhere from two to five lines at any one time, Mint will automatically enroll you on the cheapest monthly rate for three months on each line. That means paying just $15 per month for the entry-level 5GB data plan - a fee that's normally reserved for either new customers or those buying a yearly subscription.
Mint Mobile 55+ plan: exclusive seniors plan for $15 per month
Here's another promotion that's relatively well-hidden on the Mint Mobile site - so much so that you might miss it unless you read the fine print. Seniors can immediately get access to the Mint 55+ plan, which entitles them to special customer service options and the lowest rate possible for the 5GB monthly plan. Unlike most users, Seniors don't have to pay for their plan on a multi-month basis upfront, instead opting for a simply pay-monthly rate of just $15 per month (no contract needed).
Mint Mobile coupon codes
There are a lot of sites out there right now that claim to have Mint Mobile coupon codes and promo codes but quite frankly we haven't found any that actually work or offer anything you don't already get with the deals above. Free shipping is a commonly advertised Mint Mobile coupon code on these sites for example, but Mint already offers free shipping with all orders anyway. Subsequently, we'd steer of those sites because they're essentially offering false advertising.
Mint Mobile coupon codes are in fact quite rare, although we'll of course always be updating this page with any we find on a regular basis. Please feel free to bookmark this page and check-in in the future if the above Mint Mobile deals aren't what you're looking for.
Mint Mobile deals: Frequently asked questions
Does Mint Mobile have a free trial?
Yes! In fact, the Mint Mobile free trial is a brand new addition to the site and a great way to check out this prepaid carrier without incurring any additional cost. Simply visit the free trial page here, check if your phone is compatible, and sign up using your email.
After signing up you'll receive two SIM cards from Mint Mobile that will allow you to trial the service for 7-days with 250 MB of data, 250 minutes, and 250 free texts. To start your trial, simply input SIM 1 and activate the service via the Mint Mobile app. After your 7-days are up you can choose to either continue on SIM 1 with a new number or insert SIM 2 to port over your old number from another carrier. Note, you'll need to sign up with a credit card but you won't be charged unless you decide to carry on your subscription after your trial is up.
Mint Mobile: 7-day free trial now available
Get yourself 250MB of 5G data, 250 minutes, and 250 texts free of charge with the new Mint Mobile free trial. With cell phone plans as little as $15 a month, plus excellent coverage on the T-Mobile network makes Mint Mobile an extremely competitive choice for those on a budget. Previously you had to pay $5 upfront to get yourself a starter kit so this is a great way to try out this excellent prepaid carrier for less this week.
How can I check coverage in my area?
You can very easily check whether you'll be covered with Mint Mobile's coverage checker over at its site. All you need to do is enter your zip code and Mint Mobile will check to see what your 5G and 4G coverage is like. Mint Mobile operates under the T-Mobile network, so coverage is generally pretty good across the board - especially in the big cities, which are the first areas to receive 5G coverage typically. Outside of the big cities, you may find you're restricted to 4G only right now, but you'll most likely find that's the case with most providers currently.
Does TechRadar recommend Mint Mobile?
If you're on a budget and looking for a no-nonsense and great value cell phone plan then we definitely have no hesitation in recommending Mint Mobile. Even though you have to pay upfront for your plan, Mint Mobile deals offer pretty unbeatable value when it comes to monthly data allowances. Being prepaid too makes it fairly easy to try out since you won't be tied into a lengthy contract.
That said, there are plenty of other great cheap prepaid plans on the market currently so there's no harm in shopping about at rival carriers before you jump on board. A really good alternative to Mint, especially for those who want an unlimited plan, is Visible. Coming in at just $25 a month with the basic plan tier and with options for a more premium plan, this Verizon sub-carrier is a great choice. See this his week's best Visible deals for more. Another great option is Boost Mobile, which has an unlimited prepaid plan for $25 a month currently. Boost has also launched a new service called Boost Infinite recently, which offers an all-inclusive unlimited plan and an iPhone 15 Pro for just $60 per month, which is fantastic value.
We've included a couple more of our favorite plans just below for comparison's sake, and we'd also recommend checking out our best cell phone plans and best cheap cell phone plans roundups - which aim to provide a nice overview of the market as a whole if you should be interested.
